[libvirt] [PATCH 3/7] nwfilter_ebiptables_driver.c: avoid NULL dereference

From: Jim Meyering <meyering at redhat.com>

* src/nwfilter/nwfilter_ebiptables_driver.c (ebiptablesApplyNewRules):
Don't dereference a NULL or uninitialized pointer when given
an empty list of rules.  Add an sa_assert(inst) in each loop to
tell clang that the uses of "inst[i]" are valid.
